Arf, I agree that the fourth one is "more complex" :D My brain can't process it right now, it needs to sleep. Fun game nonetheless, I enjoyed it! Good job!
This game reminds me of my 9 to 5. five stars
I definitely don't have the brain for the later levels, but I really enjoyed the levels I DID have the brain for. I'd be able to figure the others out on a longer timer, as well, it's not that they're necessarily too hard or undoable.
i love these type of decoding games good job
i do suck at puzzle games, especially if they have numbers. but i love the presentation!
It's a clever way to present a puzzle, but I think I suck on this kind of games. Loved the sound effects btw <3
Very creative and clever, I'm just not that good on this games hahaha great work!
This was like a little escape room with a cool pixel art style. Very well thought out puzzles and lovely design choices in the art style. Nice work!
It was a creative puzzle, it took me a bit to understand.
Nice work!
Thank you. My childhood love of ciphers and the Da Vinci Code finally had a chance to shine! :D
this was fun and challenging, liked it
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
Interesting take! I have to give up pretty early... I guess I'll be stuck at work!
Oh no! Poor virtual code breaker will be there forever! :( Thanks for playing!
Thank you! If you have time to try a quite challenging puzzle game please jump on our game and give a review if you liked it ( or not! :P )
Game was pretty challenging but fun
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks!
nice concept!
Thanks for playing!
Fun challenge! I think it would be nice to be able to drag and reposition the notes on a table to see multiple at once, flicking back and forth to find each note again took time, although I guess that adds to the countdown stress.
Feel free to rate our game too if you get the chance :)
Thanks! Yeah, we played around with the idea of having a cork board with them all laid out, but thought this worked better for the scrambling for the notes vibe. Glad you enjoyed! :
Neat game! Was fun to decode, ended up stuck on the last puzzle.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed. That last one is quite difficult. I will post the solutions after the jam if it's still bugging you, or come back for another go! :D (Hey! We're Overtime buddies!)
